M&K Sound have taken the innovative high performance technologies from the S300 and integrated them into the MKS-MP150 speaker. The new Danish designed high performance tweeters provide high power handling and extended linearity on a one piece heavy duty cast aluminium triple tweeter array plate and a specially constructed resonance damped tweeter magnet system for precise transient control. This new design also features an integrated waveguide, combined with short horn load for wide dispersion and smooth frequency response.

The exclusive, custom designed M&K Sound 5.25" bass/midrange drive unit represents the culmination of over three decades of intensely focused transducer design. The drivers used in the MKS-MP150 are designed in house by full time engineers that have been instrumental in the design of MK Sound transducers for more than two decades. Because M&K Sound alone dictates the specifications for their drive units down to the very last detail, based on extensive original experimentation and research, their loudspeakers are not subject to the changing whims and fads of standard off-the-shelf drive units. M&K Sound proudly works to a higher, stricter standard, implementing meaningful changes as technology advances.

Working closely, M&K Sound and the Peerless transducer team developed a breakthrough cone geometry, optimised to work in combination with a unique polypropylene based diaphragm material. The polypropylene base, infused with 20% carefully selected minerals, provides a perfect balance between cone stiffness and internal damping. The woofer's low reflectivity cone is the result of a carefully calibrated combination of materials and geometry with a low loss SBR rubber surround and edge resonance stabiliser. The cone geometry follows a straight line for the surface area beyond the dust cap with a small radius shape under the dust cap. As the earliest cone break up modes generally occur close to the voice coil, the advanced mathematics underlying the cone geometry provides substantial attenuation of travelling waves well before they reach the edge of the cone, resulting in significantly reduced edge resonances.

The woofer features a thermally stable voice coil wound on an aluminium former. The former ensures linear damping for strict system control even at high sound pressure levels. The thermally stable voice coil, capable of operating at up to 250°C, is symmetrically mounted in a strontium ferrite magnet system to function as an overhung coil in the gap, for reliable, consistent handling of powerful transients and sustained high output. This speaker's strontium magnet retains full power across a broad temperature spectrum, generating a linear magnetic field across the full coil length even at maximum excursion of +/- 3.5 mm, resulting in a minimal distortion all the way up to the driver's maximum output levels. A shielding magnet and can are added to minimise stray field emissions and to focus additional flux in the gap. All of this means that the driver continues to meet its strict performance requirements for years to come.

With a mere 8.5 g of moving mass, the MKS-MP150 bass/mid unit is capable of lightning fast, accurate response across its entire operating range with a firm grip even on the most complicated program material. It is this extreme level of precision and effortless, natural sound reproduction that continues to make the M&K Sound 150 Series the choice of professionals and enthusiasts.
